Around 1910, residents of the quiet coastal town of Olalla, WA, reported seeing gaunt, malnourished people wandering aimlessly in the woods. They were looking for food and assistance, but no one dared help them. Rumors swirled about the "doctor" in the woods, and the strange hypnotic power she held over her patients. Over the course of just a few years, dozens of her patients would willingly starve themselves to death. Was she a witch? Or just a very persuasive woman, exploiting vulnerable patients? Join us as we dive deep into the story of Linda Hazzard's Starvation Heights Sanatarium, and attempt to uncover answers to these truly puzzling questions. This one is strange, spooky, and gets to the heart of why we find this genre so fascinating. Tune in and let us know what you think!
Happy Haunting!
